New Dictionary Entries

muzizum - formally "museum"; n. a building or place where works of art, scientific specimens, or other objects of permanent value are kept and displayed. We told the kids that we were going to go to the Children's Museum. Marshall had trouble pronouncing it correctly.

binoclear - formally "binocular"; n. an optical device, providing good depth effect, for use with both eyes, consisting of two small telescopes fitted together side by side, each telescope having two prisms between the eyepiece and objective for erecting the image. To be honest, I have no idea what got Marshall on this subject, but he asked if we had any binoclears that he could use.
